[32] rebels were shot through the head, which shows the precision of the aim of our marksmen. Capt. Kinney's Ohio battery of four rifled and two smooth-bore six-pounders, threw elongated shells charged with shrapnel, which did terrible execution, filling the forest with rebel dead like cordwood.

A confederate flag, which was taken from Zollicoffer's intrenchments, was constructed of silk, and bore the following: “Presented to the Mountain Rangers, Captain Ashford, by Mrs. W. V. Chardovagne.” The banner was exhibited at the Galt House, and was subsequently taken to headquarters.
